Bridging Differences: Effective Intergroup Communication

Designed for courses in intercultural or intergroup communication, cultural studies, anthropology, sociology, and management, Gudykunst's (California State U., Fullerton) text emphasizes improving communication between people from different groups, but contains ideas applicable to communication within one's own groups as well. The fourth edition includes new material on civic engagement, community in public life, diversity and community, the content of stereotypes, communication in romantic relationships, culture differences in effective communication, and theoretical explanations for prejudice, and now contains study questions for each chapter, new self-assessment questionnaires, and skill exercises.
